[NAnt-users] compiling OmniOrb idl files - options?

[Robert Hanson]

I have a number of VS.NET projects that we’re porting from VC 6.0  (all in C++).  The projects use a custom build step to compile an idl file using OmniOrb.   As I understand it, the NANT solution task does not understand or execute custom build steps, which is what we use to compile the idl file.   If I leave the .idl file in the project, NANT tries to compile it using Midl, which is just wrong.   What are my options here?  Can I convince NANT that the .idl files should be associated with some other application besides Midl?
